Description

本発明はエアカーテン装置に関し、詳しくは、微粒子が飛散する粒子飛散域と、その粒子飛散域からの粒子の侵入を防止すべき侵入防止域との間にエアカーテンを形成するエアカーテン装置に関する。   The present invention relates to an air curtain device, and more particularly to an air curtain device that forms an air curtain between a particle scattering area where fine particles are scattered and an intrusion prevention area where particles should be prevented from entering from the particle scattering area.

従来、この種のエアカーテン装置では、例えば特許文献1に見られるように、エアカーテン厚み方向において風速が均等なエアカーテン気流(換言すれば、実質的に単一のエアカーテン気流)を粒子飛散域と侵入防止域との間に形成するようにしていた。   Conventionally, in this type of air curtain device, as seen in, for example, Patent Document 1, air curtain airflow having a uniform wind speed in the air curtain thickness direction (in other words, a substantially single air curtain airflow) is scattered. Between the area and the intrusion prevention area.

しかし、上記した従来のエアカーテン装置では、粒子飛散域から侵入防止域への粒子の侵入を十分に防止しようとすると、エアカーテン気流の風速(気流速度)を大きくするとともにエアカーテン気流の厚みを大きくする必要があり、この為、エアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口から吹き出す気流の吹き出し風量が大きくなって、運転コストが嵩むとともに設備コストも嵩む問題があった。   However, in the conventional air curtain device described above, in order to sufficiently prevent the invasion of particles from the particle scattering region to the intrusion prevention region, the air curtain air flow velocity (air flow velocity) is increased and the thickness of the air curtain air flow is increased. For this reason, there is a problem that the amount of air blown out from the air outlet for forming the air curtain is increased, which increases the operating cost and the equipment cost.

この実情に鑑み、本発明の主たる課題は、合理的な気流形態を採ることで、運転コスト及び設備コストが安価でありながら、粒子飛散域から侵入防止域への粒子侵入を効果的に防止することができるエアカーテン装置を提供する点にある。   In view of this situation, the main problem of the present invention is to effectively prevent particle intrusion from the particle scattering area into the intrusion prevention area while adopting a rational air flow form, while the operation cost and equipment cost are low. An object of the present invention is to provide an air curtain device that can be used.

本発明の第1特徴構成はエアカーテン装置に係り、その特徴は、
微粒子が飛散する粒子飛散域と、その粒子飛散域からの粒子の侵入を防止すべき侵入防止域との間にエアカーテンを形成するエアカーテン装置であって、
高速で前記粒子飛散域の側を進行させる高速エアカーテン気流と、低速で前記侵入防止域の側を進行させる低速エアカーテン気流とを隣接状態で並進させる構成にするのに、
エアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口に、上流縁が下流縁に対して相対的に前記侵入防止域の側に位置する傾斜姿勢の気流案内板を設け、
前記気流吹出口からの吹き出し気流を、前記気流案内板により前記高速エアカーテン気流と前記低速エアカーテン気流とに分流する構成にしてある点にある。
The first characteristic configuration of the present invention relates to an air curtain device,
An air curtain device that forms an air curtain between a particle scattering area where fine particles are scattered and an intrusion prevention area where particles should be prevented from entering from the particle scattering area,
To make a configuration in which a high-speed air curtain airflow that travels on the side of the particle scattering region at a high speed and a low-speed air curtain airflow that travels on the side of the intrusion prevention region at a low speed are translated in an adjacent state .
An airflow guide plate having an inclined posture in which the upstream edge is located on the side of the intrusion prevention area relative to the downstream edge is provided at the airflow outlet for forming the air curtain,
The blowout airflow from the airflow outlet is divided into the high-speed air curtain airflow and the low-speed air curtain airflow by the airflow guide plate .

この構成によれば、高速エアカーテン気流と低速エアカーテン気流との並進において、それらの風速差により、低速エアカーテン気流の側から高速エアカーテン気流の側に向う速度成分を有する誘引流(即ち、侵入防止域の側から粒子飛散域の側に向う速度成分を有する誘引流)を生じさせることができる。   According to this configuration, in the translation of the high-speed air curtain airflow and the low-speed air curtain airflow, the induced flow having a velocity component from the low-speed air curtain airflow side to the high-speed air curtain airflow side due to the difference in the wind speed (that is, An induced flow having a velocity component from the intrusion prevention area side to the particle scattering area side can be generated.

また、この誘引流は、粒子飛散域や侵入防止域の域内気体が直接に高速エアカーテン気流に誘引されて生じる誘引流と異なり、高速エアカーテン気流と同様にエアカーテン形成 用の気流吹出口からの吹き出し風速成分を基本に有するものであることから、誘引に伴う高速エアカーテン気流の減衰も小さなもので済む。 In addition, this induced flow differs from the induced flow that occurs when the gas in the particle scattering area and the intrusion prevention area is directly attracted to the high-speed air curtain airflow, and from the air outlet for air curtain formation, similar to the high-speed air curtain airflow. blowing wind components since one having basically the even attenuation of the high-speed air curtain air flow accompanying the attraction requires only small.

これらことから、上記構成によれば、高速エアカーテン気流と低速エアカーテン気流との合計風量と等しい吹き出し風量で、エアカーテン厚み方向において風速が均等な単一のエアカーテン気流(即ち、従来のエアカーテン気流)を形成するのに比べ、粒子飛散域から侵入防止域への粒子侵入を一層効果的に防止することができ、また、その分、合計吹き出し風量を少量化して運転コスト及び設備コストも安価にすることができる。   From these facts, according to the above configuration, a single air curtain air flow (that is, a conventional air curtain air flow that is equal to the total air flow of the high-speed air curtain air flow and the low-speed air curtain air flow and the air speed is uniform in the air curtain thickness direction). Compared to the generation of curtain airflow, particle intrusion from the particle scattering area to the intrusion prevention area can be more effectively prevented, and the total blown air volume can be reduced by that amount to reduce the operating and equipment costs. It can be made cheap.

また、上記の第1特徴構成では、
前記高速エアカーテン気流と前記低速エアカーテン気流とを隣接状態で並進させる構成にするのに、
エアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口に、上流縁が下流縁に対して相対的に前記侵入防止域の側に位置する傾斜姿勢の気流案内板を設け、
前記気流吹出口からの吹き出し気流を、前記気流案内板により前記高速エアカーテン気流と前記低速エアカーテン気流とに分流する構成にするから、次の作用効果も奏する。
In the above first characteristic configuration,
In order to translate the high-speed air curtain airflow and the low-speed air curtain airflow in an adjacent state,
An airflow guide plate having an inclined posture in which the upstream edge is located on the side of the intrusion prevention area relative to the downstream edge is provided at the airflow outlet for forming the air curtain,
Since the blowout airflow from the airflow outlet is divided into the high-speed air curtain airflow and the low-speed air curtain airflow by the airflow guide plate , the following effects are also achieved.

この構成によれば、エアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口に気流案内板を設けるだけで、高速エアカーテン気流と低速エアカーテン気流とを形成することができて、それらエアカーテン気流を並進させることができ、これにより、それらエアカーテン気流を各別に形成する2種のエアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口を設けるのに比べ、設備コストを一層安価にすることができる。   According to this configuration, a high-speed air curtain airflow and a low-speed air curtain airflow can be formed simply by providing an airflow guide plate at the airflow outlet for forming the air curtain, and the air curtain airflow can be translated. Thus, the equipment cost can be further reduced as compared with providing two types of air curtain outlets for forming the air curtain airflow.

本発明の第特徴構成は、第特徴構成の実施に好適な実施形態を特定するものであり、その特徴は、
前記気流案内板の傾斜角度を調整して、前記高速エアカーテン気流と前記低速エアカーテン気流との風速比を調整する風速比調整部を設けてある点にある。
The second feature configuration of the present invention specifies an embodiment suitable for the implementation of the first feature configuration.
A wind speed ratio adjusting unit is provided for adjusting a wind speed ratio between the high-speed air curtain airflow and the low-speed air curtain airflow by adjusting an inclination angle of the airflow guide plate.

この構成によれば、風速比調整部により気流案内板の傾斜角度を調整して、共通のエアカーテン形成用気流吹出口から吹き出す気流の分流比(即ち、高速エアカーテン気流と低速エアカーテン気流とへの分流比)を調整することで、高速エアカーテン気流と低速エアカーテン気流との風速比を調整する。   According to this configuration, the airflow ratio adjusting unit adjusts the inclination angle of the airflow guide plate to split the airflow blown from the common air curtain forming airflow outlet (that is, the high-speed air curtain airflow and the low-speed air curtain airflow). Adjusting the wind speed ratio between the high-speed air curtain airflow and the low-speed air curtain airflow.

そして、この風速比調整により、粒子飛散域から侵入防止域への粒子侵入を最も効果的に防止できる状況を容易に得ることができる。   And by this wind speed ratio adjustment, it is possible to easily obtain a situation where the particle intrusion from the particle scattering area to the intrusion prevention area can be most effectively prevented.

なお、本発明に対する比較構成としては、前記高速エアカーテン気流を吹き出す高速側の気流吹出口と前記低速エアカーテン気流を吹き出す低速側の気流吹出口とを隣接状態で設けることも考えられる。 As a comparative arrangement for the present invention is considered the high-speed air curtain stream also Rukoto provided a low-speed side of the airflow outlet for blowing high-speed side of the air flow outlet and said low-speed air curtain airflow adjacencies blowing.

そして、この比較構成では、高速エアカーテン気流と低速エアカーテン気流とを、それらの吹き出し時における相互干渉の無い状態で円滑かつ良好に吹き出すことができ、これにより、それら高速エアカーテン気流と低速エアカーテン気流とによる所期の効果を一層効果的かつ確実に得ることができる。 In this comparative configuration, the high-speed air curtain airflow and the low-speed air curtain airflow can be smoothly and satisfactorily blown out without mutual interference when they are blown out. The desired effect due to the curtain airflow can be obtained more effectively and reliably.

また、この比較構成において、前記高速側の気流吹出口から吹き出す前記高速エアカーテン気流と前記低速側の気流吹出口から吹き出す低速エアカーテン気流との風速比を調整する風速比調整部を設けることも考えられる。 Further, Rukoto in this comparison arrangement, the wind speed ratio adjustment unit for adjusting the wind speed ratio of the low-speed air curtain airflow blown to the high-speed air curtain air flow blown from the air flow outlet of the high-speed side from the low-speed side of the air flow outlet provided Is also possible.

そして、その場合には、風速比調整部による風速比調整により、粒子飛散域から侵入防止域への粒子侵入を最も効果的に防止できる状況を容易に得ることができる。 In that case, a situation where the particle intrusion from the particle scattering area to the intrusion prevention area can be most effectively prevented by adjusting the wind speed ratio by the wind speed ratio adjusting unit can be easily obtained.

本発明の第特徴構成は、前記した第1又は第2特徴構成の実施に好適な実施形態を特定するものであり、その特徴は、
被塗物の吹付塗装を行う塗装域を前記粒子飛散域にするとともに、その塗装域の側壁内面が面する領域を前記侵入防止域にした状態で、その側壁内面に沿わせる状態で前記低速エアカーテン気流と前記高速エアカーテン気流とを並進させる構成にしてある点にある。
The third characteristic configuration of the present invention specifies an embodiment suitable for the implementation of the first or second characteristic configuration described above .
The spray area of the object to be coated is the particle scattering area, and the area facing the inner surface of the side wall of the coating area is the intrusion prevention area, and the low-speed air is kept along the inner surface of the side wall. The curtain airflow and the high-speed air curtain airflow are configured to translate.

この構成によれば、塗装域において飛散する塗料ミストがその塗装域の側壁内面に付着することを、高速エアカーテン気流と低速エアカーテン気流とにより効果的に防止することができる。   According to this configuration, it is possible to effectively prevent the paint mist scattered in the painting area from adhering to the inner surface of the side wall of the painting area by the high-speed air curtain airflow and the low-speed air curtain airflow.

図1〜図3は、被塗物W(本例では自動車のバンパ)を塗装する塗装ブース1を示し、この塗装ブース1では、例えば4つの塗装域2(=2a〜2d)を一列に並べて配置し、これら塗装域2において被塗物Wを順次に塗装する。   1 to 3 show a painting booth 1 for painting an object W (in this example, an automobile bumper). In this painting booth 1, for example, four painting areas 2 (= 2a to 2d) are arranged in a line. The objects W are arranged and the objects to be coated W are sequentially coated in these coating areas 2.

例えば、第1塗装域2aでは被塗物Wにプライマ塗装を施し、第2塗装域2bでは、プライマ塗装後の被塗物WにNo.1ベース塗装を施し、さらに第3塗装域2cでは、No.1ベース塗装後の被塗物WにNo.2ベース塗装を施す。   For example, in the first painting area 2a, primer coating is applied to the workpiece W, in the second coating area 2b, No. 1 base coating is applied to the coating object W after primer coating, and in the third coating area 2c, Apply the No. 2 base coating to the workpiece W after the No. 1 base coating.

そして、第4塗装域2dでは、No.2ベース塗装後の被塗物Wにクリア塗装を施し、これら塗装が終了した被塗物Wは乾燥炉3に送って焼付乾燥処理する。   And in the 4th coating area 2d, clear coating is given to the to-be-coated object W after No. 2 base coating, and the to-be-coated object W which these coating complete | finished is sent to the drying furnace 3, and is baked and dried.

各塗装域2の上部には、被塗物Wに所定の塗料を噴霧する噴霧手段4をほぼ鉛直な下向き姿勢で配置してある。   On the upper part of each coating area 2, spray means 4 for spraying a predetermined paint onto the article W is arranged in a substantially vertical downward posture.

これら塗装域2の横一側には、各塗装域2に対して各別に隣接させたロボット設置域5を塗装域並び方向に並べて配置し、これらロボット設置域5には夫々、対応する塗装域2において塗装作業させる塗装ロボット6を設置してある。   On one side of these painting areas 2, robot installation areas 5 adjacent to the respective painting areas 2 are arranged side by side in the painting area alignment direction, and each robot installation area 5 has a corresponding painting area. 2, a painting robot 6 for performing painting work is installed.

互いに隣り合う2つの塗装域2は夫々、被塗物Wの進行方向において上手側に位置する先行塗装域2′と被塗物Wの進行方向において下手側に位置する後行塗装域2″との関係にある。   Two coating areas 2 adjacent to each other include a preceding coating area 2 ′ located on the upper side in the traveling direction of the article W and a subsequent painting area 2 ″ located on the lower side in the traveling direction of the article W. Are in a relationship.

具体的には、第1塗装域2aが先行塗装域2′であるのに対し第2塗装域2bは後行塗装域2″であり、第2塗装域2bが先行塗装域2′であるのに対し第3塗装域2cは後行塗装域2″であり、第3塗装域2cが先行塗装域2′であるのに対し第4塗装域2dは後行塗装域2″である。   Specifically, the first painting area 2a is the preceding painting area 2 ', while the second painting area 2b is the following painting area 2 ", and the second painting area 2b is the preceding painting area 2'. On the other hand, the third painting area 2c is a subsequent painting area 2 ″, the third painting area 2c is a preceding painting area 2 ′, and the fourth painting area 2d is a following painting area 2 ″.

この先行・後行の関係は、噴霧手段4、ロボット設置域5、塗装ロボット6の夫々についても同様である。   The relationship between the preceding and following is the same for each of the spraying means 4, the robot installation area 5, and the painting robot 6.

各塗装域2において、被塗物Wは各塗装ロボット6におけるアーム7の先端部7aに枝状の保持具8を介して連結することで保持する。   In each coating area 2, the workpiece W is held by being connected to the tip 7 a of the arm 7 in each coating robot 6 via a branch-shaped holder 8.

この保持具8には、図4に示すように、その保持具8を被塗物Wに連結する保持具・被塗物連結手段として、被塗物Wに吸着させる複数の吸盤9を設けてある。   As shown in FIG. 4, the holder 8 is provided with a plurality of suction cups 9 for adsorbing to the workpiece W as a fixture / object connection means for connecting the holder 8 to the workpiece W. is there.

これら吸盤9は、被塗物Wにおける複数の連結対象箇所(本例ではバンパ前部における両端部位夫々の裏面箇所、及び、バンパ両側部夫々における裏面箇所の計4か所)に対応させた配置で保持具8に設けてある。   These suction cups 9 are arranged so as to correspond to a plurality of connection target locations in the article W to be coated (in this example, a total of four locations of the back surface locations of both end portions of the bumper front portion and the back surface locations of the bumper both side portions). Is provided on the holder 8.

保持具8はパイプ材で形成してあり、このパイプ材の内部孔(パイプ穴)は、吸盤9の内部空気を吸引手段(図示省略)により吸引する吸引路10にしてあり、この吸引路10を通じて吸盤9の内部空気を吸引手段により吸引することで、吸盤9を被塗物Wに吸着させ、これにより、保持具8を被塗物Wに連結する。   The holder 8 is formed of a pipe material, and the internal hole (pipe hole) of the pipe material is a suction path 10 for sucking the internal air of the suction cup 9 by suction means (not shown). By sucking the internal air of the suction cup 9 through the suction means, the suction cup 9 is adsorbed to the workpiece W, whereby the holder 8 is connected to the workpiece W.

吸引路10は、吸引手段を接続する吸引口10aに連なる主吸引路10bと、その主吸引路10bから分岐して各吸盤9の内部に開口する分岐吸引路10cとからなる。   The suction path 10 includes a main suction path 10b connected to a suction port 10a that connects the suction means, and a branched suction path 10c that branches from the main suction path 10b and opens into the suction cups 9.

主吸引路10bには、各吸盤9の内部から吸引口10aに向かう空気流(即ち、吸引口10aに接続した吸引手段による空気吸引)を許容し、逆向きの空気流(即ち、吸引口10aから各吸盤9の内部に向かう空気流)を遮断するボール式等の逆止弁11を設けてある。   In the main suction path 10b, an air flow from the inside of each suction cup 9 toward the suction port 10a (that is, air suction by suction means connected to the suction port 10a) is allowed, and a reverse air flow (that is, the suction port 10a). A check valve 11 of a ball type or the like that shuts off the air flow from the air to the inside of each suction cup 9 is provided.

つまり、吸引手段による空気吸引により各吸盤9を被塗物Wに吸着させた後は、吸引手段を吸引口10aから離脱させた状態においても、この逆止弁11により空気の逆流(換言すれば、各吸盤9の大気開放)を阻止することで、各吸盤9の被塗物Wに対する吸着状態を保って、保持具8と被塗物Wとの連結状態を保つ。   In other words, after the suction cups 9 are adsorbed to the workpiece W by air suction by the suction means, the check valve 11 causes a backflow of air (in other words, even in a state where the suction means is separated from the suction port 10a). By preventing the suction cups 9 from being released into the atmosphere, the suction state of the suction cups 9 with respect to the workpiece W is maintained, and the connection state between the holder 8 and the workpiece W is maintained.

また、保持具8には各吸盤9に対するカバー12を設けてあり、このカバー12は、吸盤9が非吸着状態で伸長した状態にあるときには、吸盤9の先端吸着部がカバー12の囲い領域から突出し、吸盤9が吸着状態で収縮した状態にあるときには、吸盤9の先端吸着部がカバー12の囲い領域内方側に引退する構成にしてある。   In addition, the holder 8 is provided with a cover 12 for each suction cup 9, and when the suction cup 9 is in a non-adsorbed state, the tip suction portion of the suction cup 9 is separated from the surrounding area of the cover 12. When the suction cup 9 protrudes and contracts in the suction state, the tip suction portion of the suction cup 9 is configured to be retracted toward the inside of the enclosed area of the cover 12.

つまり、このカバー12を設けることで、被塗物Wに対する吸盤9の吸着を許しながらも吸盤9に対する余剰噴霧塗料の付着を効果的に防止する。   That is, by providing this cover 12, while adsorbing the suction cup 9 to the workpiece W is allowed, it is possible to effectively prevent the excessive spray paint from adhering to the suction cup 9.

一方、各塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aを保持具8に連結するアーム・保持具連結手段としては、図5に示すように、各塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aに連結用孔13を設け、そして、この連結用孔13に対して差し込み嵌合させる連結用凸部14を保持具8に形成してある。   On the other hand, as an arm / holding tool connecting means for connecting the arm tip 7a of each painting robot 6 to the holder 8, a connecting hole 13 is provided in the arm tip 7a of each painting robot 6, as shown in FIG. And the convex part 14 for a connection inserted and fitted with respect to this connection hole 13 is formed in the holder 8. FIG.

各アーム先端部7aの連結用孔13には、円筒状の内周面を有する直孔部13aと、孔入口側ほど拡径する円錐状のテーパ状内周面を有するテーパ状入口部13bとを同芯配置で形成してある。   The connecting hole 13 of each arm tip 7a has a straight hole portion 13a having a cylindrical inner peripheral surface, and a tapered inlet portion 13b having a conical tapered inner peripheral surface whose diameter increases toward the hole inlet side. Are formed in a concentric arrangement.

これに対し、保持具8の連結用凸部14には、連結用孔13の直孔部13aに嵌合する柱状先端部14aと、連結用孔13のテーパ状入口部13bに嵌合するテーパ状段部14bとを同芯配置で形成してある。   On the other hand, the connecting convex portion 14 of the holder 8 has a columnar tip portion 14 a that fits in the straight hole portion 13 a of the connecting hole 13 and a taper that fits in the tapered inlet portion 13 b of the connecting hole 13. The stepped portion 14b is formed in a concentric arrangement.

つまり、各アーム先端部7aの連結用孔13に対して保持具8の連結用凸部14を差し込み嵌合させる際には、連結用凸部14の柱状先端部14aを連結用孔13のテーパ状入口部13bにおけるテーパ状内周面に摺接させることで連結用凸部14を円滑に連結用孔13の中心に案内する。   That is, when the connecting convex portion 14 of the holding tool 8 is inserted and fitted into the connecting hole 13 of each arm tip portion 7 a, the columnar tip portion 14 a of the connecting convex portion 14 is tapered to the connecting hole 13. The connecting convex portion 14 is smoothly guided to the center of the connecting hole 13 by being brought into sliding contact with the tapered inner peripheral surface of the inlet 13b.

そして、この差し込み嵌合を完了した状態においては、連結用孔13の直孔部13aにおける円筒状内周面に対して連結用凸部14の柱状先端部14aにおける円柱状外周面を面接触的に接触させるとともに、連結用孔13のテーパ状入口部13bにおけるテーパ状内周面に対して連結用凸部14のテーパ状段部14bにおけるテーパ状外周面を面接触的に接触させ、これにより、各塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aを保持具8に対して高い連結精度で確実に連結する。   And in the state which completed this insertion fitting, the cylindrical outer peripheral surface in the columnar front-end | tip part 14a of the convex part 14 for a connection is surface-contacting with respect to the cylindrical inner peripheral surface in the straight hole part 13a of the hole 13 for a connection. And the tapered outer peripheral surface of the tapered step portion 14b of the connecting convex portion 14 is brought into surface contact with the tapered inner peripheral surface of the tapered inlet portion 13b of the connecting hole 13, thereby The arm tip 7a of each painting robot 6 is securely connected to the holder 8 with high connection accuracy.

なお、保持具8における吸引路10の吸引口10aは、アーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結接合面(具体的には連結用凸部14の先端面部)に開口させてある。   In addition, the suction port 10a of the suction path 10 in the holder 8 is opened to the connecting joint surface between the arm tip 7a and the holder 8 (specifically, the tip surface of the connecting convex portion 14).

各アーム先端部7aの連結用孔13には、その連結用孔13に差し込み嵌合させた保持具8の連結用凸部14に対して吸着作用させる永久磁石15を設けるとともに、その連結用孔13とそれに差し込み嵌合させた連結用凸部14との間に対して空気吸引力を及ぼすアーム側吸引路16を開口させてある。   The connecting hole 13 of each arm tip 7a is provided with a permanent magnet 15 for attracting the connecting convex portion 14 of the holder 8 inserted and fitted into the connecting hole 13, and the connecting hole. An arm-side suction path 16 that exerts an air suction force is opened between 13 and the connecting convex portion 14 inserted and fitted thereto.

つまり、これら永久磁石15による磁気力、及び、アーム側吸引路16を通じて付与される空気吸引力により、連結用孔13と連結用凸部14との差し込み嵌合状態を保持し、これにより、各塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結状態を保持する。   That is, the insertion fitting state of the connecting hole 13 and the connecting convex portion 14 is maintained by the magnetic force generated by the permanent magnets 15 and the air suction force applied through the arm-side suction path 16. The connection state between the arm tip 7a of the painting robot 6 and the holder 8 is maintained.

各塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aには、保持具連結用のアーム側吸引路16とは別に、それらアーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結接合面である連結用孔13の内面に開口して、アーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結(即ち、連結用孔13に対する連結用凸部14の差し込み嵌合)により閉塞状態となる検出用空気路17を形成してある。   In addition to the arm side suction path 16 for connecting the holding tool, the arm tip 7a of each painting robot 6 is opened to the inner surface of the connecting hole 13 which is a connecting joint surface between the arm tip 7a and the holding tool 8. Thus, the detection air passage 17 is formed in a closed state by the connection between the arm tip 7a and the holder 8 (that is, the insertion fitting of the connecting projection 14 to the connecting hole 13).

また、各塗装ロボット6には、アーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結で閉塞状態となった検出用空気路17に対し圧縮空気の供給により所定の正圧を印加する圧力印加手段(図示省略)、及び、この検出用空気路17における空気圧力を検出する圧力検出手段18を装備してある。   Further, each coating robot 6 is provided with a pressure applying means (not shown) for applying a predetermined positive pressure by supplying compressed air to the detection air passage 17 which is closed by the connection between the arm tip 7a and the holder 8. And a pressure detecting means 18 for detecting the air pressure in the detection air passage 17 is provided.

つまり、被塗物Wや保持具8が他物と衝突するなどして、各塗装ロボット6の各アーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結状態に異常が生じたり、保持具8に異常外力が作用したときには、それに伴う検出用空気路17の開放で検出用空気路17の印加正圧が低下するようにし、この印加正圧の低下を圧力検出手段18により検知することで、上記の連結異常や異常外力を検出する。   That is, because the workpiece W or the holding tool 8 collides with another object, an abnormality occurs in the connection state between each arm tip 7a of each coating robot 6 and the holding tool 8, or abnormal external force is applied to the holding tool 8. When the detection air passage 17 is opened, the applied positive pressure of the detection air passage 17 is decreased, and the decrease in the applied positive pressure is detected by the pressure detection means 18, thereby Detect abnormalities and abnormal external forces.

そして、この圧力検出手段18により異常が検出されたときには、制御手段19が各塗装ロボット6の動作を緊急停止したり、警報を発するなどの所定の保安処理を実行する。   When an abnormality is detected by the pressure detection means 18, the control means 19 executes a predetermined security process such as urgently stopping the operation of each painting robot 6 or issuing an alarm.

なお、連結用孔13の内面において検出用空気路17の開口部には、その開口部を囲うリング状のシール材(図示省略)を取り付けてあり、このシール材により、アーム側吸引路16を通じて空気吸引力が付与される領域と、検出用空気路17を通じて正圧が印加される領域とを仕切ってある。   Note that a ring-shaped sealing material (not shown) surrounding the opening is attached to the opening of the detection air passage 17 on the inner surface of the connection hole 13, and the arm-side suction passage 16 passes through this sealing material. The region where the air suction force is applied is separated from the region where the positive pressure is applied through the detection air passage 17.

上記制御手段19は、各塗装ロボット6を予め設定された動作プログラムに従って自動動作させるものであり、各塗装域2では、上記の如く各塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aに保持具8を介して被塗物Wを連結した状態で、それら塗装ロボット6の自動動作により被塗物Wを噴霧手段4に対し変位させながら、それら噴霧手段4からの下向き塗料噴霧により被塗物Wを塗装する。   The control means 19 automatically operates each painting robot 6 in accordance with a preset operation program. In each painting area 2, the arm tip 7a of each painting robot 6 is held via the holder 8 as described above. In a state where the objects to be coated W are connected, the objects to be coated W are applied by spraying downward from the spraying means 4 while the objects to be coated W are displaced with respect to the spraying means 4 by the automatic operation of the coating robot 6.

また、この塗装において、制御手段19は、被塗物Wにおける各時点の塗装対象面を噴霧手段4からの塗料噴霧方向に対してほぼ垂直な姿勢を保つ状態に被塗物Wを姿勢変化させながら、被塗物Wを噴霧手段4に対して変位させる構成にしてある。   Further, in this painting, the control means 19 changes the posture of the article W so that the surface to be coated at each time point on the article W is maintained substantially perpendicular to the direction of spraying the paint from the spray means 4. However, the configuration is such that the workpiece W is displaced relative to the spray means 4.

隣り合うロボット設置域5の境界部で各塗装ロボット6の間には、隣り合う塗装ロボット6どうしが被塗物Wの受け渡しを行う受渡部20を設けてあり、先行する塗装域2′での塗装が終了した被塗物Wは、この受渡部20を経て後行塗装域2″に送られる。   Between the respective painting robots 6 at the boundary between the adjacent robot installation areas 5, a delivery section 20 is provided between the adjacent painting robots 6 to deliver the object W to be coated. The article W to be coated is sent to the subsequent painting area 2 ″ through the delivery unit 20.

具体的には、制御手段19は、先行塗装域2′での先行塗装の終了後、被塗物Wを保持具8とともに先行塗装ロボット6′の動作により先行塗装ロボット6′と後行塗装ロボット6″との間の受渡部20に保持させて、被塗物Wと保持具8との連結は保ったままの状態で、先行塗装ロボット6′のアーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結を解除する。   Specifically, the control means 19 performs the preceding painting robot 6 'and the subsequent painting robot by moving the workpiece W together with the holder 8 together with the holder 8 after the completion of the preceding painting in the preceding painting area 2'. In the state where the workpiece W and the holder 8 are kept connected while being held by the delivery section 20 between 6 ″, the connection between the arm tip 7a of the preceding coating robot 6 ′ and the holder 8 is maintained. Is released.

そして、先行塗装ロボット6′のアーム先端部7aを受渡部20から退避移動させた後、後行塗装ロボット6″の動作により後行塗装ロボット6″のアーム先端部7aを、被塗物Wとの連結が保たれたままの状態で受渡部20に保持されている保持具8に連結させ、これに続き後行塗装域2″での後行塗装に移行する。   Then, after the arm tip portion 7a of the preceding painting robot 6 'is moved away from the delivery unit 20, the arm tip portion 7a of the following coating robot 6 "is moved to the object W by the operation of the following coating robot 6". In the state where the connection is maintained, it is connected to the holding tool 8 held by the delivery unit 20, and then the subsequent painting is performed in the subsequent painting area 2 ″.

なお、各塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aには、保持具連結用のアーム側吸引路16を通じた空気吸引を停止した状態で、永久磁石15の磁気力に抗し連結用孔13から連結用凸部14を離脱させてアーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結を解除する連結解除手段(図示省略)を装備してある。   It should be noted that the arm tip 7a of each coating robot 6 is connected to the arm through the connecting hole 13 against the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 15 in a state where air suction through the arm suction path 16 for connecting the holding tool is stopped. A connection releasing means (not shown) for releasing the connection between the arm tip 7a and the holder 8 by separating the convex portion 14 is provided.

即ち、制御手段19は、アーム側吸引路16を通じた空気吸引を停止するとともに、この連結解除手段を自動操作することで、受渡部20において先行塗装ロボット6′のアーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結を解除する。   That is, the control means 19 stops air suction through the arm-side suction path 16 and automatically operates the connection release means, so that the arm tip portion 7a of the preceding painting robot 6 ′ and the holding tool 8 are automatically operated in the delivery section 20. Disconnect from the link.

第1塗装域2aに搬入する被塗物Wは、作業者や他のロボットにより、予め保持具8を連結した状態で第1塗装域2a近傍の搬入部21に保持させ、これに対し、第1塗装域2a用の塗装ロボット6の動作により、その塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aを、被塗物Wとの連結が保たれた状態で搬入部21に保持されている保持具8に連結し、これに続き、第1塗装域2aでの塗装に移行する。   The workpiece W to be carried into the first painting area 2a is held by the carrying section 21 in the vicinity of the first painting area 2a in a state where the holding tool 8 is connected in advance by an operator or another robot. By the operation of the painting robot 6 for one painting area 2a, the arm tip 7a of the painting robot 6 is connected to the holding tool 8 held by the carry-in portion 21 in a state where the connection with the article W is maintained. Subsequently, the process proceeds to painting in the first painting area 2a.

また、最終の第4塗装域2dでの塗装を終了した被塗物Wは保持具8とともに第4塗装域2d用の塗装ロボット6の動作により、第4塗装域2dの近傍で搬送台車22に載置して、塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結を解除し、その後、保持具8及び搬送台車22とともに乾燥炉3に送る。   Further, the workpiece W that has finished painting in the final fourth coating area 2d is moved to the transport carriage 22 in the vicinity of the fourth coating area 2d by the operation of the coating robot 6 for the fourth coating area 2d together with the holder 8. After placing, the connection between the arm tip 7a of the coating robot 6 and the holding tool 8 is released, and then, it is sent to the drying furnace 3 together with the holding tool 8 and the transport carriage 22.

そして、この際、乾燥炉3での熱環境により被塗物Wが軟化するのに対し、保持具8における各吸盤9の内部負圧を大気開放することで被塗物Wにおける吸盤吸着部位の変形を防止する。(なお、場合によっては、この大気開放により乾燥炉3での吸盤9の異常収縮を防止することもできる)。   At this time, the coating object W is softened by the thermal environment in the drying furnace 3, whereas the suction pressure of the suction cup adsorption site in the coating object W is released by releasing the internal negative pressure of each suction cup 9 in the holder 8 to the atmosphere. Prevent deformation. (Note that, depending on the case, this atmospheric release can prevent abnormal shrinkage of the suction cup 9 in the drying furnace 3).

各塗装域2とそれに対応して隣接する各ロボット設置域5との間には仕切り壁24を設け、この仕切り壁24には、ロボット設置域5に設置した塗装ロボット6のアーム7を対応塗装域2へ延出させる作業用開口24aを形成してある。   A partition wall 24 is provided between each painting area 2 and each corresponding robot installation area 5 corresponding thereto, and an arm 7 of the painting robot 6 installed in the robot installation area 5 is correspondingly painted on this partition wall 24. A work opening 24 a extending to the region 2 is formed.

また、各ロボット設置域5の天井懐部には、空調機(図示省略)からロボット設置域用の給気路25aを通じて供給される換気用空気saを受け入れるロボット設置域用の給気チャンバ26を設けてある。   In addition, an air supply chamber 26 for the robot installation area that receives ventilation air sa supplied from an air conditioner (not shown) through the air supply path 25a for the robot installation area is provided in the ceiling pocket of each robot installation area 5. It is provided.

そして、この給気チャンバ26の下壁を兼ねる各ロボット設置域5の天井部には、ロボット設置域用の給気チャンバ26に受け入れた換気用空気saを各ロボット設置域5に吹き出す給気口27を設けてある。   An air supply port through which ventilation air sa received in the air supply chamber 26 for the robot installation area is blown out to each robot installation area 5 is formed in the ceiling of each robot installation area 5 that also serves as the lower wall of the air supply chamber 26. 27 is provided.

一方、各ロボット設置域5における天井懐部の塗装域側部分には、同空調機から塗装域用の給気路25bを通じて供給される換気用空気sbを受け入れる塗装域用の給気チャンバ28を設けてある。   On the other hand, a painting area air supply chamber 28 for receiving the ventilation air sb supplied from the air conditioner through the painting area air supply passage 25b is provided at the painting area side portion of the ceiling pocket in each robot installation area 5. It is provided.

なお、塗装域用の給気チャンバ28とロボット設置域用の給気チャンバ26とのいずれか一方に新鮮な換気用空気を供給し、他方には塗装域2からの排出空気を浄化したリサイクル空気を換気用空気として供給するようにしてもよい。   In addition, fresh ventilation air is supplied to one of the air supply chamber 28 for the painting area and the air supply chamber 26 for the robot installation area, and the other is recycled air in which the exhaust air from the painting area 2 is purified. May be supplied as ventilation air.

また、塗装域2とロボット設置域5とに同一の換気用空気(sa=sb)を供給する場合には、塗装域用の給気路25bとロボット設置域用の給気路25aとを1本の兼用給気路にするとともに、塗装域用の給気チャンバ28とロボット設置域用の給気チャンバ26とを一つの兼用給気チャンバにするようにしてもよい。   When the same ventilation air (sa = sb) is supplied to the painting area 2 and the robot installation area 5, the painting area air supply path 25b and the robot installation area air supply path 25a are set to 1 In addition to the dual-purpose air supply path, the painting area supply chamber 28 and the robot installation area supply chamber 26 may be combined into a single combined supply chamber.

そして、塗装域用の給気チャンバ28から各塗装域2の一側壁2w(ロボット設置域5とは反対側に位置する塗装域側壁)まで伸びる2本のソックフィルタ29(円筒状フィルタ)を設け、これらソックフィルタ29は、平面視において両ソックフィルタ29どうしの間の中央部に噴霧手段4が位置する状態に配置してある。   In addition, two sock filters 29 (cylindrical filters) extending from the painting area air supply chamber 28 to one side wall 2w of each painting area 2 (the painting area side wall located opposite to the robot installation area 5) are provided. These sock filters 29 are arranged in a state in which the spraying means 4 is located at the center between the sock filters 29 in plan view.

つまり、各塗装域2については、塗装域用の給気チャンバ28に受け入れた換気用空気sbを、これら2本のソックフィルタ29から各塗装域2の上部に供給する。   That is, for each paint zone 2, the ventilation air sb received in the air supply chamber 28 for the paint zone is supplied to the upper part of each paint zone 2 from these two sock filters 29.

各塗装域2の上部において2本のソックフィルタ29の上側には、平面視において各塗装域2のほぼ全域にわたるダクト幅で、塗装域用の給気チャンバ28から各塗装域2の一側壁2wまで伸びる渡りダクト30を設けてある。   The upper side of the two sock filters 29 at the upper part of each painting area 2 has a duct width over almost the entire area of each painting area 2 in a plan view, and from one air supply chamber 28 for each painting area 2 to one side wall 2w of each painting area 2. A crossover duct 30 is provided which extends to the end.

この渡りダクト30の先端部における下面には、各塗装域2の一側壁2wに沿って下向きに流れるエアカーテンfaを形成するエアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口31を形成してある。   An air outlet 31 for forming an air curtain that forms an air curtain fa that flows downward along the one side wall 2 w of each painting area 2 is formed on the lower surface of the front end portion of the transition duct 30.

つまり、塗装域用の給気チャンバ28に受け入れた換気用空気sbの一部は渡りダクト30を通じエアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口31から下向きに吐出させることで、各塗装域2の一側壁2wに沿って下向きに流れるエアカーテンfaを形成する。   That is, a part of the ventilation air sb received in the air supply chamber 28 for the painting area is discharged downward from the air outlet 31 for forming the air curtain through the crossing duct 30, so that one side wall 2 w of each painting area 2 is discharged. An air curtain fa flowing downward is formed.

エアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口31と噴霧手段4とは、平面視において塗装域2とロボット設置域5との並び方向に同芯状に並べて配置し、また、エアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口31の幅寸法d(換言すれば、エアカーテンfaの幅寸法)は、塗装域一側壁2wの幅寸法より小さくて、2本のソックフィルタ29どうしの離間寸法よりも小さい寸法にしてある。   The air flow outlet 31 for forming the air curtain and the spray means 4 are arranged side by side in the alignment direction of the painting area 2 and the robot installation area 5 in plan view, and the air flow outlet for forming the air curtain. The width dimension d of 31 (in other words, the width dimension of the air curtain fa) is smaller than the width dimension of the coating area one side wall 2w and smaller than the separation dimension of the two sock filters 29.

各塗装域2の下方には、塗装域2への空気供給及び対応するロボット設置域5への空気供給に伴い塗装域2から下向きに排出される空気eaを受け入れる排気域32を形成してあり、この排気域32に受け入れた空気eaは排気路33を通じて排気ファン(図示省略)により排出される。   Below each painting area 2 is formed an exhaust area 32 for receiving air ea discharged downward from the painting area 2 in accordance with the air supply to the painting area 2 and the air supply to the corresponding robot installation area 5. The air ea received in the exhaust area 32 is exhausted through an exhaust path 33 by an exhaust fan (not shown).

なお、塗装域2からの排出空気eaに含まれる余剰噴霧塗料を乾式捕集する場合には、排気域32において排出空気eaに粉状の捕集補助材を混合し、排気路33の下流側において、余剰噴霧塗料を捕集補助材とともにフィルタで捕集するようにしてもよく、また、塗装域2からの排出空気eaに含まれる余剰噴霧塗料を湿式捕集する場合には、余剰噴霧塗料に対する湿式の捕集装置を排気域32に配置するようにしてもよい。   In addition, when the excessive spray paint contained in the exhaust air ea from the coating area 2 is dry-collected, the powdered collection auxiliary material is mixed with the exhaust air ea in the exhaust area 32, and the downstream side of the exhaust path 33. In this case, the excess spray paint may be collected by a filter together with the collection auxiliary material, and when the excess spray paint contained in the exhaust air ea from the coating area 2 is collected by a wet process, the excess spray paint is collected. A wet collection device may be disposed in the exhaust region 32.

上記排気路33を通じた空気排出により、各ロボット設置域5は隣接する塗装域2よりも高圧に保たれて、これらロボット設置域5からは対応塗装域2との間の仕切り壁24に形成された作業用開口24aを通じて対応塗装域2に流入する横向きないし斜め下向きの空気流raが形成され、この空気流raにより各塗装域2においてロボット設置域5の側への余剰噴霧塗料の飛散を抑止する。   By discharging the air through the exhaust path 33, each robot installation area 5 is maintained at a higher pressure than the adjacent painting area 2, and is formed on the partition wall 24 between the robot installation area 5 and the corresponding painting area 2. A lateral or obliquely downward air flow ra that flows into the corresponding coating area 2 through the working opening 24a is formed, and the air flow ra suppresses scattering of excess spray paint toward the robot installation area 5 in each painting area 2. To do.

つまり、噴霧手段4による下向き塗料噴霧により塗料飛散が抑制されることとも相俟って、上記空気流raによりロボット設置域5の側への余剰噴霧塗料の飛散を抑止することで、塗装ロボット6の本体部に対する余剰噴霧塗料の付着はもとより塗装ロボット6のアーム7に対する余剰噴霧塗料の付着も効果的に防止する。   In other words, in combination with the fact that the paint scattering is suppressed by the downward paint spraying by the spraying means 4, the spraying robot 6 suppresses the spraying of excess spray paint toward the robot installation area 5 by the air flow ra. In addition to the adhesion of the excessive spray paint to the main body portion, the adhesion of the excessive spray paint to the arm 7 of the coating robot 6 is effectively prevented.

また、各塗装域2の一側壁2wに沿って下向きに流れるエアカーテンfaを形成することで、塗装域2の一側壁2wに向かう余剰噴霧塗料はエアカーテンfaにより捕捉し、これにより、各塗装域2の一側壁2wに対する余剰噴霧塗料の付着も防止する。   Further, by forming an air curtain fa that flows downward along one side wall 2w of each painting area 2, surplus spray paint toward the one side wall 2w of the painting area 2 is captured by the air curtain fa, thereby It also prevents the excessive spray paint from adhering to the one side wall 2w of the area 2.

即ち、上記の如く噴霧手段4による下向き塗料噴霧により塗料飛散が抑制されることで、塗装域2の一側壁2wに向かう余剰噴霧塗料の拡がり幅も小さく抑制され、このことから、エアカーテンfaが幅寸法dの小さいものであっても、各塗装域2の一側壁2wに対する塗料付着は効果的に防止することができる。   That is, by suppressing the paint scattering by the downward paint spraying by the spray means 4 as described above, the spread width of the surplus spray paint toward the one side wall 2w of the coating area 2 is also suppressed, so that the air curtain fa Even if the width dimension d is small, it is possible to effectively prevent the paint from adhering to the one side wall 2w of each coating area 2.

塗装域2と塗装域一側壁2wの内面が面する領域との間(即ち、塗料粒子が飛散する粒子飛散域とその粒子飛散域からの粒子侵入を防止すべき侵入防止域との間)に上記エアカーテンfaを形成するにあたっては、図6に示すように、エアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口31に、エアカーテンfaの厚み方向中間部に位置して、上流縁が下流縁に対して相対的に塗装域一側壁2wの側に寄った傾斜姿勢の気流案内板40を設けてある。   Between the coating area 2 and the area facing the inner surface of the coating area one side wall 2w (that is, between the particle scattering area where the paint particles are scattered and the intrusion prevention area where particle intrusion should be prevented from the particle scattering area). In forming the air curtain fa, as shown in FIG. 6, the air curtain forming airflow outlet 31 is positioned at the middle portion in the thickness direction of the air curtain fa, and the upstream edge is relative to the downstream edge. In particular, an airflow guide plate 40 having an inclined posture close to the side wall 2w of the painting area is provided.

即ち、気流吹出口31からの吹き出し空気流を、気流案内板40により、粒子飛散域である塗装域2の域内側を高速で下向きに進行する高速エアカーテン気流fa1と、侵入防止域である塗装域一側壁2wの側を低速で下向きに進行する低速エアカーテン気流fa2とに分流し、これら高速エアカーテン気流fa1と低速エアカーテン気流fa2とを塗装域一側壁2の内面に沿わせて隣接状態で並進させるようにしてある。   That is, the airflow from the airflow outlet 31 is applied to the high-speed air curtain airflow fa1 that travels downward at high speed inside the coating area 2 that is the particle scattering area by the airflow guide plate 40 and the coating that is the intrusion prevention area. The one side wall 2w side is divided into a low-speed air curtain airflow fa2 that travels downward at a low speed, and these high-speed air curtain airflow fa1 and low-speed air curtain airflow fa2 are adjacent to each other along the inner surface of the painting-area one side wall 2 It is trying to translate with.

つまり、これら高速エアカーテン気流fa1と低速エアカーテン気流fa2との並進において、それらの風速差により低速エアカーテン気流fa2の側から高速エアカーテン気流fa1の側に向う速度成分を有するとともに、気流吹出口31からの吹き出し風速成分も有する誘引流fa3を生じさせ、これにより、塗装域2から塗装域一側壁2aの側への余剰噴霧塗料の侵入を効果的に阻止して、塗装域一側壁2wの内面に対する塗料付着を防止する。   That is, in the translation of the high-speed air curtain airflow fa1 and the low-speed air curtain airflow fa2, the airflow outlet has a velocity component from the low-speed air curtain airflow fa2 side to the high-speed air curtain airflow fa1 side due to the difference in wind speed between them. This causes an induced flow fa3 that also has a blown air velocity component from 31, thereby effectively preventing excess spray paint from penetrating from the paint zone 2 to the side of the paint zone one side wall 2a. Prevent paint adhesion to the inner surface.

なお、隣り合う塗装域2どうしは隔壁34又は垂れ壁又はエアカーテンにより仕切ってあり、これにより、隣り合う塗装域2どうしの間(即ち、先行塗装域2′と後行塗装域2″との間)での余剰噴霧塗料の相互移動を防止する。   Adjacent paint areas 2 are separated by a partition wall 34, a hanging wall or an air curtain, so that the adjoining paint areas 2 are separated (ie, between the preceding paint area 2 'and the subsequent paint area 2 "). To prevent mutual movement of excess spray paint.

また、隣り合うロボット設置域5どうしはそれらの並び方向において互いに開放させ、あるいは、仕切るにしてもエアカーテンにより仕切るに止め、これにより隣り合う塗装ロボット6どうしの間(即ち、先行塗装ロボット6′と後行塗装ロボット6″との間)での受渡部20を介した被塗物Wの受渡しを容易にする。   In addition, the adjacent robot installation areas 5 are opened to each other in their arrangement direction, or even if they are partitioned, they are not separated by an air curtain, so that the adjacent painting robots 6 are separated (that is, the preceding painting robot 6 '). And the subsequent painting robot 6 ″), it is easy to deliver the workpiece W via the delivery unit 20.

〔別実施形態〕
次に本発明の別の実施形態を列記する。

保持具8と連結状態にある被塗物Wを保持する受渡部20は、被塗物W及び保持具8を載せ置く形態で保持するものに限らず、被塗物W及び保持具8を吊り下げ形態で保持するものなどであってもよい。   The delivery unit 20 that holds the workpiece W that is connected to the holder 8 is not limited to a configuration that holds the workpiece W and the holder 8 in a form in which the workpiece W and the holder 8 are placed thereon, and the workpiece W and the holder 8 are suspended. What hold | maintains in a lowered form etc. may be sufficient.

また、塗装ロボット6どうしによる被塗物Wの受け渡しには、先行塗装ロボット6′が先行塗装後の被塗物Wを受渡部20に保持させ、その後、後行塗装ロボット6″が受渡部20に保持された被塗物Wを後行塗装に先立ち受け取る形態に限らず、先行塗装ロボット6′が後行塗装ロボット6″に対して先行塗装後の被塗物Wを直接に手渡す形態を採用してもよい。   In order to deliver the workpiece W between the painting robots 6, the preceding painting robot 6 ′ holds the article W after the preceding painting on the delivery unit 20, and then the subsequent painting robot 6 ″ delivers the delivery unit 20. In addition to the configuration in which the workpiece W held in the container is received prior to the subsequent coating, the preceding coating robot 6 'directly hands the workpiece W after the previous coating to the subsequent coating robot 6 ". May be.

塗装域2の上部に配置する噴霧手段4は、塗料を鉛直下向きに噴霧するものに限らず、塗料を斜め下向きに噴霧するものであってもよく、また、塗料の噴霧向きを下向き範囲内において変更し得るものにしてもよい。   The spraying means 4 arranged at the upper part of the painting area 2 is not limited to spraying the paint vertically downward, but may spray the paint obliquely downward, and the spray direction of the paint is within the downward range. It may be changed.

噴霧手段4として、被塗物Wの種類や噴霧塗料の種類などに応じて選択的に使用する複数の噴霧手段を塗装域2の上部に配備してもよい。   As the spraying means 4, a plurality of spraying means that are selectively used according to the type of the object to be coated W, the type of sprayed paint, and the like may be provided in the upper part of the coating area 2.

各塗装域2に対する給気構造については図7〜図9に示す構成にしてもよい。   About the air supply structure with respect to each coating area 2, you may make it the structure shown in FIGS.

つまり、エアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口31を下面に形成したエアカーテン形成用の吹出ボックス35を、各塗装域2における一側壁2wの上部に配設する。   That is, the air curtain forming blow box 35 in which the air curtain forming air flow outlet 31 is formed on the lower surface is disposed on the upper portion of the one side wall 2 w in each coating region 2.

そして、塗装域用の給気チャンバ28から延出する2本のソックフィルタ29をエアカーテン形成用吹出ボックス35の側面まで至らせて、それらソックフィルタ29の先端部を絞り開口や風量調整ダンパなどの絞り機構35aを通じてエアカーテン形成用吹出ボックス35の内部に開口させる。   Then, the two sock filters 29 extending from the air supply chamber 28 for the painting area are brought to the side surface of the air curtain forming blowing box 35, and the tip of the sock filter 29 is throttled, an air volume adjusting damper or the like. The air curtain forming blow box 35 is opened through the aperture mechanism 35a.

即ち、この給気構造では、塗装域用の給気チャンバ28に受け入れた換気用空気sbの一部を両ソックフィルタ29から各塗装域2の上部に供給するのに併行して、塗装域用の給気チャンバ28に受け入れた換気用空気sbの他部を両ソックフィルタ29を通じてエアカーテン形成用吹出ボックス35に供給し、これにより、気流案内板40を備えるエアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口31から高速エアカーテン気流fa1と低速エアカーテン気流fa2とを並進状態で吐出させて、塗装域2の一側壁2wに沿うエアカーテンfaを形成する。   That is, in this air supply structure, a part of the ventilation air sb received in the air supply chamber 28 for the painting area is supplied to the upper part of each painting area 2 from both the sock filters 29, so The other part of the ventilation air sb received in the air supply chamber 28 is supplied to the air curtain forming blow-out box 35 through both sock filters 29, whereby the air curtain forming air flow outlet 31 provided with the air flow guide plate 40. The high-speed air curtain air current fa1 and the low-speed air curtain air current fa2 are discharged in translation to form an air curtain fa along the one side wall 2w of the painting area 2.

また、各塗装域2に対する給気構造については図10〜図12に示す構成にしてもよい。   Moreover, you may make it the structure shown in FIGS. 10-12 about the air supply structure with respect to each coating area 2. FIG.

つまり、各塗装域2における一側壁2wの両端隅部に塗装域2の全高に及ぶ塗料タンク設置室36を形成し、これら塗料タンク設置室36の平面視横断面形状は塗装域2における一側壁2wの両端隅部に納まる略三角形状にする。   That is, a paint tank installation chamber 36 that extends over the entire height of the paint zone 2 is formed at both corners of the one side wall 2 w in each paint zone 2, and the cross-sectional shape in plan view of these paint tank setup chambers 36 is one side wall in the paint zone 2. The triangular shape fits in the corners of both ends of 2w.

そして、エアカーテン形成用気流吹出口31の平面形状(即ち、エアカーテンfaの平面視横断面形状)は、塗料タンク設置室36の三角横断面形状における底辺部と塗装域2の一側壁2wとにより囲まれる台形形状にする。   The plane shape of the air curtain forming airflow outlet 31 (that is, the cross-sectional shape in plan view of the air curtain fa) is the bottom side in the triangular cross-sectional shape of the paint tank installation chamber 36 and the one side wall 2w of the coating area 2. A trapezoidal shape surrounded by

即ち、この給気構造であれば、エアカーテンfaにより、塗装域2の一側壁2wに対する余剰噴霧塗料の付着を防止するとともに、両塗料タンク設置室36の室壁に対する余剰噴霧塗料の付着も併せて防止することができる。   That is, with this air supply structure, the air curtain fa prevents the excessive spray paint from adhering to the one side wall 2w of the paint area 2, and also causes the excessive spray paint to adhere to the chamber walls of both paint tank installation chambers 36. Can be prevented.

なお、この場合も、エアカーテンfaは、粒子飛散域である塗装域2の域内側を高速で進行する高速エアカーテン気流fa1と、侵入防止域である塗装域一側壁2wの側を低速で進行する低速エアカーテン気流fa2とにより形成するのが望ましい。   In this case as well, the air curtain fa travels at a low speed on the side of the high-speed air curtain air current fa1 that travels at a high speed inside the coating area 2 that is a particle scattering area and on the side of the painting area one side wall 2w that is an intrusion prevention area. The low-speed air curtain airflow fa2 is preferably formed.

さらに各塗装域2に対する給気構造については図13に示す構成にしてもよい。   Further, the air supply structure for each paint zone 2 may be configured as shown in FIG.

つまり、各塗装域2の上部に設ける渡りダクト30の下壁30aをパンチング板やフィルタなどにより形成する多孔構造30aにし、これにより、ソックフィルタ29を省略して、渡りダクト30の下壁多孔構造30aから塗装域2の上部に換気用空気sbを吹出供給する。   That is, the lower wall 30a of the transition duct 30 provided in the upper part of each painting area 2 is formed into a porous structure 30a formed by a punching plate or a filter, thereby omitting the sock filter 29 and the lower wall porous structure of the transition duct 30. The ventilation air sb is blown out and supplied from 30a to the upper part of the painting area 2.

そして、渡りダクト30を通じてエアカーテン形成用の気流吹出口31から吐出させる気流を気流案内板40により高速エアカーテン気流fa1と低速エアカーテン気流fa2とに分流することで、塗装域2の一側壁2wに沿うエアカーテンfaを形成する。   Then, the airflow discharged from the airflow outlet 31 for forming the air curtain through the crossing duct 30 is divided into the high-speed air curtain airflow fa1 and the low-speed air curtain airflow fa2 by the airflow guide plate 40, whereby one side wall 2w of the painting area 2 Is formed along the air curtain fa.

ロボット設置域5に設置する塗装ロボット6は、床置き型のものに限らず、壁掛け型や天井吊り型など、どのような設置形式のものであってもよい。   The painting robot 6 installed in the robot installation area 5 is not limited to the floor-mounted type, but may be of any installation type such as a wall-mounted type or a ceiling-suspended type.

塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aと被塗物Wとの連結に用いる保持具8の具体的な形状・構造は種々の構成変更が可能である。   Various modifications can be made to the specific shape and structure of the holder 8 used to connect the arm tip 7a of the painting robot 6 to the workpiece W.

また、塗装ロボット6のアーム先端部7aを保持具8に連結するアーム・保持具連結手段の具体的な構造、及び、保持具8を被塗物Wに連結する保持具・被塗物連結手段の具体的な構造も、前述の実施形態で示したものに限らず、種々の構成変更が可能である。   Further, the specific structure of the arm / holding tool connecting means for connecting the arm tip 7a of the painting robot 6 to the holding tool 8, and the holding tool / workpiece connecting means for connecting the holding tool 8 to the work W The specific structure is not limited to that shown in the above-described embodiment, and various configuration changes can be made.

前述の実施形態では、吸盤9の内部に向かう空気流を逆止弁11により阻止することで吸盤9の被塗物Wに対する吸着状態を保持する例を示したが、この逆止弁11に代えて図14に示すように、開閉弁23を保持具8の主吸引路10bなどに介装するようにしてもよい。   In the above-described embodiment, an example in which the suction state of the suction cup 9 with respect to the workpiece W is maintained by blocking the air flow toward the inside of the suction cup 9 by the check valve 11 is described. As shown in FIG. 14, the on-off valve 23 may be interposed in the main suction path 10 b of the holder 8.

即ち、吸盤9を被塗物Wに対する吸着状態に保持するときには、この開閉弁23を制御手段19からの無線信号による指令などにより閉じ操作し、一方、吸盤9の内部空気を吸引手段により吸引して吸盤9を被塗物Wに対し吸着させるときや、吸盤9の内部を大気開放して吸盤9の被塗物Wに対する吸着状態を解除するときには、この開閉弁23を制御手段19からの無線信号による指令などにより開き操作するようにしてもよい。   That is, when the suction cup 9 is held in the attracted state with respect to the workpiece W, the opening / closing valve 23 is closed by a command by a wireless signal from the control means 19 and the internal air of the suction cup 9 is sucked by the suction means. When the suction cup 9 is attracted to the workpiece W, or when the suction cup 9 is released from the atmosphere by releasing the inside of the suction cup 9 to the atmosphere, the on-off valve 23 is wirelessly connected from the control means 19. The opening operation may be performed by a command by a signal or the like.

また、前述の実施形態では、吸盤9の内部空気を吸引して吸盤9を被塗物Wに対し吸着させるときだけ吸引手段(図示省略)を吸引路10の吸引口10aに接続する構成にしたが、これに代え、アーム先端部7aと保持具8との連結状態を保持するアーム側吸引路16を通じて付与される空気吸引力を利用して吸盤9の内部空気を吸引することで、吸盤9を被塗物Wに吸着させる構成にしてもよい。   In the above-described embodiment, the suction means (not shown) is connected to the suction port 10a of the suction path 10 only when the air inside the suction cup 9 is sucked to suck the suction cup 9 against the workpiece W. However, instead of this, the suction cup 9 is sucked by sucking the internal air of the suction cup 9 by using the air suction force applied through the arm suction path 16 that holds the connection state between the arm tip 7a and the holder 8. May be configured to be adsorbed to the workpiece W.

噴霧手段4は昇降操作が自在な状態で塗装域2に配置し、これにより、噴霧手段4に対するメンテナンスを容易に行えるようにしてもよい。   The spraying means 4 may be arranged in the coating area 2 in a state where the raising / lowering operation is freely performed, so that maintenance of the spraying means 4 can be easily performed.

そして、この場合、例えば図15に示すように、上下揺動が自在な平行リンク機構37の揺動端に下向き姿勢の噴霧手段4を取り付け、そして、この平行リンク機構37を上昇揺動側に付勢するウエイトなどの付勢手段38を設けるとともに、平行リンク機構37の揺動範囲を規定する緩衝用エアシリンダなどの限界規定手段39を設けるようにしてもよい。   In this case, for example, as shown in FIG. 15, the spray means 4 in the downward posture is attached to the swing end of the parallel link mechanism 37 that can swing up and down, and the parallel link mechanism 37 is moved to the ascending swing side. A biasing means 38 such as a weight for biasing may be provided, and a limit defining means 39 such as a buffer air cylinder for defining the swing range of the parallel link mechanism 37 may be provided.

つまり、この構造であれば、通常時は平行リンク機構37を限界規定手段39により規定される上昇限界位置まで上昇揺動させた状態にすることで、噴霧手段4を下向き姿勢で塗装域2の上部位置に保持することができ、この状態で、噴霧手段4を被塗物Wに対して塗料噴霧させることができる。   In other words, with this structure, the spraying means 4 is placed in a downward posture in the painting zone 2 by bringing the parallel link mechanism 37 up to the rising limit position defined by the limit defining means 39 in the normal state. The spraying means 4 can be sprayed onto the workpiece W in this state.

一方、噴霧手段4に対するメンテナンス作業時などには、付勢手段38の付勢力に抗し平行リンク機構37を鉛直下向き姿勢となる下降限界位置まで下降揺動させて、付勢手段38の付勢方向を反転させることで、噴霧手段4を下向き姿勢で塗装域2の下部位置に保持することができ、この状態で、噴霧手段4に対するメンテナンス作業などを行うことができる。   On the other hand, at the time of maintenance work on the spraying means 4, the parallel link mechanism 37 is swung down to the lower limit position where the vertical downward posture is resisted against the biasing force of the biasing means 38, and the biasing means 38 is biased. By reversing the direction, the spraying means 4 can be held at the lower position of the painting area 2 in a downward posture, and maintenance work for the spraying means 4 can be performed in this state.

また、高速側の気流吹出口31aと低速側の気流吹出口31bとを隣接状態で設けて高速エアカーテン気流fa1と低速エアカーテン気流fa2を形成する上記比較構成の場合、同図16に示すように、高速側の気流吹出口31aからの吹き出し風量を調整する風量調整ダンパVa、及び、低速側の気流吹出口31bからの吹き出し風量を調整する風量調整ダンパVbを設け、これら風量調整ダンパVa,Vbを風量比調整部として、各風量調整ダンパVa,Vbの開度を調整することで、高速エアカーテン気流fa1と低速エアカーテン気流fa2との風速比を調整することも考えられる。 Further, in the case of the above comparative configuration in which the high-speed air curtain airflow fa1 and the low-speed air curtain airflow fa2 are formed by providing the high-speed airflow outlet 31a and the low-speed airflow outlet 31b adjacent to each other, as shown in FIG. Are provided with an air volume adjustment damper Va for adjusting the amount of air blown from the high-speed side air outlet 31a and an air volume adjustment damper Vb for adjusting the amount of air blown from the low-speed side air outlet 31b. It is also conceivable to adjust the wind speed ratio between the high-speed air curtain airflow fa1 and the low-speed air curtain airflow fa2 by adjusting the opening degree of each airflow adjustment damper Va, Vb using Vb as the airflow ratio adjustment unit .
